About Support and Privacy

What is “Supporting”?
Supporting a Thunderclap campaign is like signing a petition but with the added power of simultaneously sharing a message. You and every other supporter are standing up for an idea with the power of your voice.

How do I support?
Choose between your Twitter, Facebook, or Tumblr account to grant Thunderclap permission to post a message on your behalf. That’s it! If the campaign reaches its support goal by the deadline, Thunderclap will automatically post your message and all other supporters' messages at the same time.

A note on privacy
When you log into Thunderclap using your Twitter, Facebook, or Tumblr account, you’re allowing our platform to share a single message on your behalf. That’s all. We use the absolute minimum permissions possible to post a message on your behalf. The platforms we integrate with sometimes include additional permissions that we do not use and we will not post anything from your friends' accounts.

More
than 1 billion people or 15% of the world population are living with
disabilities - the world’s largest and most disadvantaged group - most of which,
are in developing countries.

Around the world, persons with disabilities face
physical, social, economic and attitudinal barriers that exclude them from
participating fully and effectively as equal members of society. They are
disproportionately represented among the world’s poorest, and lack equal access
to basic resources, such as education, employment, healthcare and social and
legal support systems, as well as have a higher rate of mortality. In spite of
this situation, disability has remained largely invisible in the mainstream
development agenda and its processes.

By 3 December 2013, the
International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we will have the Outcome Document
of the first High-Level Meeting on Disabilities and Development, which would
provide an blueprint for action and ideal platform to launch global efforts to
help realize the full and equal participation of persons with disabilities in
society and shape the future of development for all!
